This is in response to ALL of the pundits on BOTH sides that have been saying, lately, "Just let Palin be Palin." They say that she has been too wound up and out of her "comfort zone".
Well, out of Wasilla seems to be out of her comfort zone, for starters...
Okay, so... we see her first in Ohio when she was tapped. She delivered prepared remarks via telepromter. Okay, prepared speach... who is she?
Then... she delivers her speach at the RNC... a prepared speach that many have said was written for her before she was tapped and then " added to on her behalf. Here we saw her as pithy, sarcastic and prepared. She apparently had one impromtu moment with that "lipstick" comment. Okay, so we're starting to get to know her. Still prepared... no substance, just sarcastic remarks about "community organizers" and snarls to the camera when she says things like "I'll be an advocate for you."
Then... Charlie Gibson. Now, Charlie did not give her any of the questions in advance... so, this was Palin "off the cuff" and she bombed it big time. Clearly she was over prepared, saturated with information she couldn't decifer. She started to show the classic signs of someone trying to impress with her breadth of knowledge, hence her ability to dig herself in to the deepest of holes... and continue to fall in them and bury herself in total nonsense. So, was that Palin? Wasn't that Palin?
Then there was Tina Fey #1 - Glory Day. Tina is doing for Sarah what Dana Carvey did for Ross Perot and George HW Bush and Darrol Hammond did for Al Gore. Killed them.
Then there was Hannity. Ugh! Not even worth mentioning... few did.
All the while she continues to stump with McCain... giving the same speach, her RNC speach, over and over and over and over and over and over. Bridge to Nowhere, Reform, Maverick.... bla bla bla bla bla.
Then there was, and is Couric. She OBVISOULY was not prepared in advance with the questions she would be asked... and her trail fell off of the cliff... all the while blabbing and bumbling until she hit the bottom.
Then there was Tina Fey #2 - HAPPY DAY! Thanks to Tina, the country now knows Sarah as a bumbling idiot who will try to cute her way out of any sticky spot. This works for traffic tickets, some of the time, but not for this job. Not when you have 150 Million people who are going to hire you.
Then there was Couric #2 and #3... each one worse than the next. She's know digging herself to China.
So, in all of these (three) interviews, when has she NOT been herself? WHEN!!!!?!?!?!?
This must be people's (conservative pundits) problem with her. They can't admit, and haven't realized, that they do not like her. Period. They continue to pound the table and say, "Let Palin be Palin." "Free Sarah!"... please! She HAS been Palin... this WHOLE TIME!
She's not going to be Ronald Reagan and John McCain is no Teddy Roosevelt. COME ON!
I will compliment the Gov. from Alaska. She is genuine and has shown us EXACTLY who she is this whole time. She's not talented enough to be someone else. She IS genuine enough to be her own genuine self...AND THAT SCARES US ALL TO DEATH!!!
Palin's problem is Palin. Not her handlers, not her advisors, not even John McCain. She is her own worst enemy.
McCain wont let her go... and he shoudn't... for our sake, he shoudn't. The more "Palin" Palin is, the better for Barack and Joe and the better for America.
The polls aren't lying. The more we all see her, the less we like her. The more Barack speaks, the more everyone else believes what we beleive:
That Barack Obama will be the next and greatest President of the United States of America. And he'll only outdo himself in his second administration.
After these last two years of being on this road with Barack... all I can say is... 8 more years! 8 more years! 8 more years!!!!
